Out of the division and strife of the Middle Ages, Spain emerged from behind the massive Pyrenees to straddle the stage of European
politics like some new colossus. Discoverer of a New World, it became the greatest power on earth and created a Golden Age of culture
quite breathtaking in the quality of its achievement. Within 150 years, Spain was in a state of decay and fast being left behind by more
progressive European nations.
